About the Author - from his website:

I grew up in New York City. After a stint at the University of Chicago (I didn’t graduate–I had things to do) I traveled around the country and ended up in San Francisco.  Drugs and rock ‘n roll. Did some light shows for bands, learned to play guitar – the usual stuff.  I forgot all about writing.

A few years later, while working at a ski lodge in Alta, Utah, I found I was getting bored.  So I looked around for the most unlikely thing I could think of, and joined the Salt Lake City Police Department.  I only planned to do it for a year, just for the experience.  That year turned into seven.

When I left, I had enough material to fill a book.  So I wrote one, a police thriller.  Then another.

Dog Days was my first Urban Fantasy, followed by New Tricks and Unleashed. Play Dead is the latest in the series and the last, at least for a while.  

I split my time these days between Alta, Utah, and San Francisco, and when I’m not working or writing, play guitar with my band in SF, The Procrastinistas. 

The character of the dog, Lou – well, he’s sort of a dog – is based on a real dog.  Big surprise there.  I personally have one cat and no dogs -- but my girlfriend now has four.
